  I’m new to this topic and only recently learned about RAID levels. Why is it a big no no?

    I’m in the same boat. Based on the things I’ve learned in the last hour or two, ZFS RAIDz1 is just newer and better. Someone told me that ZFS will help prevent bit rot, which is a concern for me, so I’m assuming ZFS RAIDz1 also does this, though I haven’t confirmed it yet. I’m designing my enclosure now and haven’t looked into that yet.

      Yup, it does that. You can run a scrub whonever you want and it’ll manually check them. Or you can just open the files and it will check at runtime.

    Also a no-no. ZFS RAIDz2 is what you want.
